Once sony starts advertising GT5 like Microsoft is doing Halo reach then it will start to gain preorders. Also I am planning on buying GT5 but did not preorder yet because i think its too early and i suppose there are many people like me. Is there a way to see preorders for for GT5 in Europe? Because after Gamescom I think many people in Europe will start reserving it.

There hasn't been any Reach ads yet.

Is kinect adventures the same for the kinect camera?

yes there are. On the discovery channel there are at least 2 reach ads every 30 minutes. (when i was watching cashcab)

That's just the teaser ad. Consider it first few drops of rain before a hurrican. MS said there's going to be an epic live action campaign so Halo Reach exposure has only just barely started. If you think a teaser ad is a lot then you better prepare yourself for MS marketing at it's best.

its actually a fairly long ad. 30-45 seconds im guessing

It's nothing but quick cuts and music. No story, character, dialog, etc. It may be 30 seconds, but there's very little to take away or get people pumped. It's just a beautiful teaser with a tragic theme. It catches your eye, but it leaves you with questions. Like I said, MS has a big live action campaign planed that nobody has seen anything of yet. The blitz is still yet to hit.

Of course Microsoft is going to campaign the hell out of Reach. Its their highest selling IP. Remember money to microsoft is like free crack to a drug-depraved crackwhore.
